I know who gave her the tickets because a) it's no secret, and b) because I give a shit about knowing at least something about a topic before I start mouthing off about it.
Here's the New York Post reporting where she got the ticket, for a start.
Self-proclaimed “socialist” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was personally invited by the Metropolitan Museum of Art to Monday night’s gala.

"Self-proclaimed “socialist” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was personally invited by the Metropolitan Museum of Art to Monday night’s gala — and didn’t have to fork over $35,000 for her ticket like so many others she mingled with at the lavish bash, sources confirmed to The Post."
Also has a quote from her, saying that it's not unusual for high-profile NY politicians to be invited to the Gala and comped.
“And before haters get wild flying off the handle, New York elected officials are routinely invited to and attend the Met due to our responsibilities in overseeing and supporting the city’s cultural institutions for the public,” she added: “I was one of several in attendance in this evening,” she noted defensively."
Carry on spouting your programmed lines, never bothering to check up on anything at all.
Also, understand that I have
plenty of criticisms to make of AOC. Attending this ball is not one of them.
